The Post That Won't Stop

Friday, 30 June 2006 1:02 P GMT-05

The Color Blox Sox are done! They fit really well. These are the second pair of toe up socks I have made and while I love the idea of using up every bit of yarn, I don't know if toe ups are for me. I felt like they took longer to knit that cuff down.

This is the second Color Blox Sock. For the little time I have spent knitting it has gone along quickly. I really enjoy knitting the garter stitch cuff so I've been kind of poking along with it to make it last. Another evening or two of knitting and

Mail Call and a little contest

Thursday, 22 June 2006 7:46 A GMT-05

Yesterday there was a package in the mail for me. That hardly ever happens! It was the prize I won in Ruth's contest. Some lovely Lorna's Laces Shepherd Sock in Irving Park and some yummy Lindt chocolates that are, um, gone. We dived in after dinner.

What, it's Wednesday?

Where have the days gone? I hope the entire summer doesn't zip by this fast. There really should be a rule that the days slip away at the same speed. Did you ever notice how slowly a cold February day passes? I spent some time finishing up the first

I'm Late

I am late blogging today. The day has just slipped past me. Yesterday I spent a few hours working on the sock. I ended up knitting the gusset increases and the heel with the same yarn but I think it looks good. I'll start another color when I get bac

A Bunch of Nothing

It's Wednesday and it feels like it. I haven't knit a stitch since Sunday. And I don't feel like knitting. Sad huh. The sun has been wonderful. I have had a migrane for 2 days. It is sucking the joy out of the sun.

A Whole New Week

Things are looking up. As you can see in the photo the sun has returned. My mood is greatly improved. I spent the weekend cleaning up the house so you can call the health inspector and tell him never mind. I also washed what must have been every piec

The view out my window

Is it any wonder I've lost my will to live do everything? We are still having rain. I don't have any idea how many days it has been. Everything is soggy. The weather people are calling for at least 2 more days of this. Are we sure it's June? It

And now for something kind of different

The second picot edge sock continues. Another photo of a nearly finished sock is not what you want to see or what I want to show so we'll move on to something else. This is my bag of leftovers. It's all sock yarn. Some leftovers are just tiny bits,
